Scientific computing at Sandia Laboratories: a long-range plan
Major inadequacies and problems have developed in the present scientific computer complex at Sandia Laboratories, Albuquerque (SLA). This plan proposes to correct these inadequacies with a general concept whose implementation is specific. The concept presented here for meeting the computational needs of SLA is expected to guide the architectural design of the CCF for an extended period of time. The implementation of this concept is subject to change as installation progresses. This plan reflects the current state of technology, and, as new technology is developed, the plan will be modified to use innovations. This document fulfills two requirements: to provide management and users of scientific computing with a preliminary description of the facilities and elements of the proposed new scientific computing complex, and to provide the designers and implementers of the complex a basic system design that can be expanded as each area of the plan evolves. 17 figures, 1 table.
